The TBG PC Build Comparison Page

So, this is the week we've all been waiting for - Black Friday week! If you've been holding off all year to build a new PC at the lowest possible price, now is the time. With that said, not everything gets discounted for Black Friday, but our guides are being updated with everything that is being discounted. Specifically, we're seeing big price cuts on Samsung SATA-based SSDs, Corsair memory, Intel 8th-gen CPUs, certain AMD CPUs, and a select few AMD and Nvidia GPUs. Overall, you can expect to save about 5% on a new system, once all the components are accounted for, which can really add up if you're buying a high-end system.

All this week, each product that has been discounted will be noted as such, and total system discounts will be provided where possible.

How to Use the TBG PC Build Buyer's Guides

Whether it's your first, tenth, or hundredth time building a PC, these guides will set you up with the most up-to-date components you can buy. We currently feature two-dozen builds (yes, we mean 24 different systems!). Generally speaking, our build guides fall into five price ranges:

The Low-Cost Builds ($500-$750): if this is your first build, or you have modest needs, these systems will be ideal for home office, home theater, or gaming.

The Mid-Range Builds ($1,000-$1,250): you want a PC that will be faster and quieter than just about any off-the-shelf system, but you still want it to be easy to build.

The High-End Builds ($1,500-$2,000): you're looking for serious gaming chops, or a very powerful office PC.

The Supreme Dream Machine ($7,500+): you have a truly unlimited budget, or you just want to know what you could buy if you did!

To find the right PC for you, feel free to browse all of the options below, or alternatively choose specific criteria from our filter browser below, which will display just the builds that meet your needs. You can then click on the "View Specs" button to see a quick view of prices, parts, and dimensions, or click the "View Guide" button to jump straight to the full Buyer's Guide for that build.

Remember, the only way we can continue to bring these guides to you on a monthly basis is if you support the work we do. All we ask is that you use the links we provide in our guides if you decide to purchase products we recommend. By doing so, you'll help keep TBG on the Internet for the future generations of PC builders, and also ensure that we will never have to plaster your screen with ads. We'd also like to express our gratitude to SilverStone Technology Co., which helps sponsor the TBG PC Build Buyer's Guides. SilverStone has been dedicated to the PC community for well over a decade, and they've been very supportive of the work we do here at TBG, while also being open to criticism once in a while!
